Eric Dier

Good luck to him if he does go. Seems like a genuinely decent guy and was epic in that midfield role with Dembele. Nothing but love for him and I hope he gets some mega wages to tide him over when he retires.

that disasterclass against barcelona seems to be the last straw for Ange

 

[Robbiepope]

that’s horrible. don’t want to see any of our players go there, feel bad for him

Yeh let’s have a whip round to raise a few quid for him

Sad to see the end of the era, but happy to see the dawn of a new era.

Best of luck, Eric

(on the outside chance you read the forum)

It was tweeted 6 hours ago and nobody is picking it up, most likely bollocks.

The original source is a reporter from BBC Arabic

Is it though? Finding it hard to find proof of that anywhere beyond assuming the photos on the twitter account are actually him.

No way Dier goes to Saudi Arabia. If he does, I've seriously misjudged him as a person. But I'm certain he wouldn't.

Know him do you

This is the original source post by the looks of it.

Even actual BBC journalists can be full of BS and no word on fee. But if this is to be it then it really is the end of an era and the start of a new one.

yes

I don't. but doesn't mean that I can't have an opinion on the type of person I think/thought he is.

You know we haven’t deported him there, right?

It’s Saudi Arabia, not Rwanda.

Both terrible

 

[mark87]

Wow. That's a surprise if true.

 

[sidford]

Reading through this lads tweets seems like every player from 1980 onwards is moving to Saudi

 

[soflapaul]

Although the regime is horrible. I think people need to understand not everyone in Saudi wants to remove the average persons head.

Good to know regarding the average people. What about those that are superior or inferior?

Never let the truth get in the way of a stereotype…

Don't feel sorry for him. If he goes, he's going of his own choice.

..oh and the money will likely speed up his retirement which he'll be happy about, to focus on his businesses outside of football.

 

[Derryank]

Can anyone remember a game in which he starred/owned other than his debut?

Get him out of this squad. Stealing a wage

True story

 

[dude573]

I really can't see him accepting a move to Saudi. That would ruin any chance he has of getting back into the England Squad. He gets dogs abuse, but he could easily do a decent job for a lower midtable PL level team.

He was a very able contributor in some of our better teams. Never an elite CB though and I think that's the issue now. Versatility is a blessing and a curse.
